You might think it's easy, but not when you're 7 years old - synchroneous swinging. Making nadir shots like this is much easier.

Processing raw materials to make pigments

Between 1646 and 1696 paint windmill 'De Kat' was built at its present site on the Kalverringdijk at the Zaanse Schans. In 1782 the mill was destroyed by fire but was rapidly rebuilt again. At the beginning of the 1900’s the mill was demolished to the height of the platform. In May 1960 the eight-sided paint mill 'De Duinjager' was taken from its former spot owing to urban development and placed on top of the old storehouse of 'De Kat'. The mill is once again grinding raw materials to make pigments for paints in the traditional time-honoured way and is widely believed to be the only mill of its kind.

After days and days of trying with my Levi Light Delta and the Triton I finally found the right conditions this evening - perfect wind and light to paint the scenery I was looking for. And sweating like crazy paid off!

Now that I think of it... this inundation is probably the work of humans, not of nature...
